I am a fresh graduate from the College with a degree in Economics and Foreign Affairs. I will be working in New York for the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ. I look forward to the life in New York which I expect to be very different from the four years I spent in the beautiful town of Charlottesville. There is a very important reason for me to move to NYC: food. I love good food and am interested in finding restaurant and sampling delicious food in the Big Apple. During my time at the University, I served as the Vice-President for the Mainland Student Network and a member of the Class of 2011 Trustees.

Upon graduation, I joined Teach For America. I taught kindergarten in the Mississippi Delta for my two-year commitment and stayed for a third year. As a corps member, I was a campus recruiter for Teach For America, which brought me back to my U.Va. every year during my time in the corps. I was also proud to serve as a national spokesperson featured on its homepage and in its recruitment media. I was also given the inaugural Roger Malkin Fellowship, a designation given to one second-year corps member for excellence in teaching and outstanding contributions to the Delta regional corps.

Currently, I am in my third and final year at Columbia Law School in New York City. I have served as a law clerk at the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund in New York, the co-chair of the school's Civil Rights Law Society and on the leadership boards for the Black Law Students Association and Columbia Outlaws. I am also honored to serve this year as the editor-in-chief of the Columbia Journal of Race and Law, a hub of digital scholarship at http://cjrl.columbia.edu. The University of Virginia will always have a special place in my life and I love being part of building the future of the University and the alumni community!

I recently moved to Arlington VA. A 2005/2006 Curry School graduate, I am a teacher and currently enjoying summer break while learning my new neighborhood. I will be teaching at the Langley School in McLean, VA where I will be a 6th grade advisor and elementary school physical education teacher. I love sailing, rowing, hiking, my hometown of Buffalo, NY and U.Va.!

I graduated from the College in 2009 where I studied Cognitive Science and Math. I spent the following year as a researcher in the E-School (Department of Systems and Information Engineering) studying how neurons in the finger can encode information about texture to the brain. After finishing up there, I took the summer to hike a good portion of the Appalachian Trail before starting my PhD in Cognitive Science at Brown University, where I do research on how the brain integrates many sources of information in real time during language comprehension.

While at Virginia, I was involved with the University Judiciary Committee, the Minority Rights Coalition, Resident Staff, Alternative Spring Break, the Triathlon Team, and I got to live on the Range. I also contributed to several multidisciplinary research projects. I think the most exciting and important thing I did while at the University, though, was to help organize Hoos for Haiti, a coalition of dozens of student organizations and hundreds of students that raised over $100,000 for relief efforts in the months following the devastating earthquakes there in 2010.

I'm currently hard at work on my PhD with a prospective graduation date in the next century (if I'm lucky). In the meantime, I enjoy reading and learning a whole lot, getting away on hiking trips when I can, serving on the Board for the U.Va. Club of RI, and helping organize fundraisers for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

I was born and raised in Dallas, TX. I graduated from U.Va. Nursing School in 2007. During my time at the university, I served in many leadership roles for the School of Nursing. I was elected a nursing school judge for the UJC, after having been a UJC educator, and was the Nursing School representative to the Student Council. Other organizations I was involved in included Kappa Alpha Theta Sorority and Madison House.

Upon graduating from U.Va., I moved to Atlanta, GA and worked in a large Neonatal ICU, caring for premature infants.

In the fall of 2011, I'll begin my second year of law school at the College of William & Mary (a school founded, in part, with sixteenth-century pirate gold). My interests in the law change from day to day, but international commercial law, environmental law, and legal history are recurring themes.

While at U.Va. as an undergraduate, I participated in various Madison House programs, served as a Resident Advisor, and worked with First Year Players. I also kept busy by promoting weekly screenings of French films at the Maison Francaise and sailing with Virginia's sailing club.

Before joining LBS, I was on the faculty at the University of Maryland. In addition to various University of Virginia activities, my wife Katie (CLAS '03) and I enjoy traveling and getting to better know the United Kingdom and Europe.

Although not a native of Richmond I truly have fallen in love with the city! I currently serve on several non-profit Boards including Stop Child Abuse Now and Read Aloud Va.

I recommend that you come and visit. Whether it be for Homecomings, Reunions or just to hang out.

As for non-UVa related things I spend my free time doing Triathlons, so you can find me swimming in the AFC, biking through the Blue Ridge or running on the Rivana. I'm also planning a 58-week 58-National Park Road Trip, so look for me on the road as well!

I live in the city I was born and raised – Brooklyn, NY. However I did have to give my favorite place a break for college and found a new home at UVa. I spent my four years balancing the left and right side of my brain as a double major in Economics and Women's Studies. In addition to studying I enjoyed serving on Resident Staff and working with the Women's Center in a variety of ways. Upon graduating I couldn't resist returning north. For the past seven years I built a career in media and communications. Currently, I am the Client Services Manager at a digital media company overseeing client relations and account services for west coast business.

I am an active member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. and New York Junior League.

Raised in Louisiana in a Nigerian household, I am a lover of languages, warm weather, and the spiciest of cuisines. With these loves in tow, I came to the University under the Jefferson and Echols scholarships, which offered me both the blessing and curse of complete academic autonomy. In the end, upon graduating from the University in 2005, I had completed the Political and Social Thought Distinguished Majors program with a second major in English, and a minor in French.

Currently, I am happily teaching, leading, and learning in my role as a Founding Professor and Director of Middle and High School Programs at the Relay School of Education. The work is both critical -- as we seek to change the face of teacher training in New York and beyond -- and gratifying -- as we share expert practitioner insights with new teachers. In keeping with the field of education, I remain engaged with my alma mater by serving on the Regional Selection Committee for the Jefferson Scholarship. Additionally, I am a proud participant in Black Alumni Weekend, and a supportive alum of the Black Voices Gospel Choir, University Singers chorus, University Guide Service, and WU.Va. radio news department.
